Luke, Brother, I've been at this two and a half months. Two out of three ain't bad for a newbie. God Bless, Ray Quote
KAYAK45 Posted April 27, 2011 Author Report Posted April 27, 2011 Alright! I got a picture off FEEBAY. Cannot tell how it skives or the width of skive. Any answer close is OK Quote
Moderator Art Posted April 27, 2011 Moderator Report Posted April 27, 2011 The ? in ones were made for the shoe trade, primarily repair work. The skiver part will do about a 1/2 to 3/4 inch skive; NOT TO A FEATHER. It is made to do heavy sole leather up to about 12 iron (1/4 inch). The cutter is the round knife type of cutter, again for heavy sole leather to the depth of the ?in1's throat. There is also a welt press as Luke said and it is good for pressing edges down. The welt is a piece of sort of oil tanned leather that holds the insole and uppers to the outsole. Art Alright! I got a picture off FEEBAY. Cannot tell how it skives or the width of skive.
